Operating Instructions

Preheating

1. Plug In: Plug the grill into a standard electrical outlet. The indicator light will illuminate.
2. Preheat: Allow the grill to preheat for approximately 3-4 minutes. The indicator light will turn off when the grill has reached its optimal cooking temperature, indicating it is ready for use.

Grilling

1. Prepare Plates: For best results and to prevent sticking, lightly spray the non-stick grilling plates with a non-stick cooking spray before placing food.
2. Place Food: Place your food (e.g., burgers, chicken, steaks) directly onto the bottom grilling plate. The floating hinge design accommodates various food thicknesses for even cooking.
3. Close Lid: Close the top lid.
4. Cook: Cook according to desired doneness. General cooking guidelines for typical items:
   • Burgers (1/4 lb): 4-7 minutes
   • Chicken Breasts (boneless, skinless): 5-8 minutes
   • Steaks (1/2 inch thick): 4-7 minutes

Using the Bun Warmer

The integrated bun warmer allows you to gently heat buns or bread while your main course cooks. Simply place items on the warming surface located on top of the grill during the last few minutes of grilling.

Maintenance and Cleaning

2. Remove Drip Tray: Remove the drip tray from the front of the grill.
3. Detach Control Panel: Carefully detach the removable control panel from the back of the grill.

Troubleshooting

• Food sticking: Always preheat the grill fully until the indicator light turns off. Consider using a light coating of non-stick cooking spray on the plates.
